More chaos is chaos~!

~Rizal~

"Hey…you OK in there, da ze?"

"Hm? Yeah, I'm fine. The fever's gone down." I stood up. "But thank you for worrying…unless Charice asked you to ask."

"No…I was worried, da ze!"

"Nice to hear that, Yong Soo."

"Of course, da ze!"

"…do you like saying that?"

"What, da ze?"

"That word you keep saying."

"What word, da ze?"

"…what you just said."

"What did I say, da ze?"

Wow, I'm not getting to him, aren't I?

"…nevermind. Just…make sure Charice isn't killing someone."

"Of course, da ze~!"

I just rolled my eyes again and followed him out of the room. Nonetheless, I was greeted with the image of Charice fighting Gilbert over who in the world was getting the first pancake made by none other than Mr. Matthew Williams himself. Through all that arguing, I snuck toward the quiet Canadian and saw him smile at my presence.

"Morning."

"Good morning." He lifted the frying pan in his hand. "You want a pancake?"

"Sure do." I took up a plate. "Thank you."

Fortunately, the argument was so in depth that no one seemed to know that I took the first pancake. Well, no one but Ivan, and he seemed cool with it…no pun intended. He just smiled at me, and I guess it was a little creepy. It was then that I finally remembered something from the canon about this guy.

"You're the guy that likes sunflowers, right?"

"Da." He answered.

"Well, at least I was right." I grinned. "I left a vase of sunflowers for you as a housewarming gift, so I wanted to verify it in case you didn't want them."

"No, I like the sunflowers. Thank you."

"Sure, sure."

Apparently, it wasn't until the pancake was finally finished that they realized that the first one had been taken. And I will admit this: the looks on their faces when they were mad did scare me just a little bit. Am I the only sane person in this house? Well, that sucks.

"Ve~~~all this is making me hungry…"

"Of course, of course Feli-chan!" She turned to Matthew. "You almost done?"

"I already am, Charice." He answered. "The whole stack is here."

"Suh-WEET!"

The whole mob jumped into the fray, and the plate was empty by the end of the minute. Oh, and judging by what was on the floor, they ran over the poor Canadian again. One of these days, he's going to just go back into Cracked or something-

"Ah…the pain…I love to inflict double of this over you…"

Oh. Look at that.

I made a small gesture, and Ivan quickly bopped Matthew over the head, preventing the mode from getting any further. Apparently, this was getting to be some kind of habit or something. Hopefully, Ivan doesn't go just as mentally insane as…well, the rest of these dudes.

~Charice~

"Hey, Yong-kun…I heard you like Korean dramas!"

"Of course I do, da ze!" He chirped, shoving the extremely sweet pancakes (I think he likes sweets). "Why, do you watch them?"

"My friend does. Liara Cosgrove, obsessed with them." I joked. "I think her favorite is Stairway to Heaven."

"Oh, that one? It's not bad, da ze."

For some reason, we ended up talking about Korean dramas while Rizal was staring at the floor. There wasn't anything there, so I figured that it wasn't anything big. After a few seconds, he peeled off another America from the ground. Oh. Right. Greenland…Argentina? Mexico? Who was this dude again?

Whatever.

"The pancakes are as awesome as ever!" I chirped.

"HEY! I'm the only one here who gets to say awesome around here!" Gil-kun shook his hands.

"…Ivan?"

"Of course, da."

He was put in his place.

I feel so awesome being able to control a Russian like that. Maybe it's because he doesn't want to take over the world as of yet. Wouldn't be surprised, really. After a few minutes, Rizal came back into the room (wait, he left?) carrying mail that wasn't a huge package. THANK GOD.

"Huh. There's a discount of shampoo at Walgreen's." He remarked. "Speaking of which…have any of you taken a bath yet?"

…

"OH THAT'S JUST DISGUSTING!"

"Charice, that's not the type of words you can use at this point…"

"Ve~~~I keep forgetting."

"Man, I guess that means I have to help you shower~!" Yay~!

"Hm…you want to join in a shower with the awesome me too…?"

*DEATH AND RUSSIAN GLARES OF HORRIBLENESS*

/=+=/

"Just get into the tub and I'll be with you shortly~!"

"Ve~~~OK!"

I did have to admit that this was something that I had to question. Here I thought that Feliciano knew how to bathe by himself. Guess I was wrong. Oh well, for some reason I don't feel bothered by this. Maybe it's because of the cuteness factor~! I turned my head and saw Feli-chan scrub the soap on his skin.

"Ve~~~what kind of shampoo is this?"

"Aloe. It's really good for the skin, makes it smooth~" I chirped. "I use it all the time."

"Wow…it must be good."

"It is, it is." I stared at him. "Aren't you going to wash your hair?"

"Ve? Oh…" He rubbed the top of his head. "Um…"

"OK, OK…be grateful you're cute~!"

"Ve~~~thank you~!"

Too…cute…

Five minutes later, I'm massaging Sunsilk into his hair, him singing something in Italian and swaying his head as I did so. After a few minutes of wondering if he was actually paying attention, I stared at him and realized that he was staring at him in confusion.

"Are you OK? You looked out of it."

"I got tired, that's all." I laughed. "Zoning out does that."

"Oh…ve…at least you're OK~!"

It was then that I saw him tense and shake a little bit. I blinked for a few minutes before realizing that I accidentally grabbed the curl by accident (must've tried to wash it or something). It was the only time I ever tackle-glomped anyone in the bathtub.

~Rizal~

Yes, I have read the manuals before. Bathing with any of these guys will result in my head through a skewer or at least the end of my innocence. But the manuals seem to be addressed more toward girls, so I guess I should be fine for now…god willing. I was able to find a huge public bathing area for pool parties (apparently?) and placed it in Jacuzzi mode, and then waited for the others. They all came running in with their naked passions, Alfred tackle-glomping my head into the side of the rim. Fortunately, Matthew noticed that I wasn't just doing the dead man's float and proceeded to save me.

"A-are you OK, Rizal?"

"I'm good, I'm good…though I don't think I'll be able to operate normally for a while…"

"Ne~~~then let me shampoo your hair for you."

"Um…thanks."

…

…

…

…

"Um…Ivan?"

"Da?"

"Why are you holding my head?"

"I'm shampooing your hair."

"But you're giving me a bigger headache than before."

"That's how I shampoo my hair, da?"

"…just shampoo yours first."

Ivan seemed to be willing to do that, maybe because I'm a guy or something. Across from me, Yong Soo was singing something that sounded like a K-Pop song (might have to ask Charice about this) and Matthew was minding his own business. It was then that I realized that Arthur hadn't come out of the dressing area.

"You're not coming out here?"

"…no."

"Why not?"

"…just because."

"Hey, we're all butt naked here. And I'm pretty sure we're not going to be comparing anytime soon."

"Though mine is the biggest, da?"

"Hey, speaking of which, where's Gilbert?"

"Don't bring him up…" I sighed. "Come on, Arthur."

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Well, I think Gilbert's back there, and-"

He dashed out there and sank into the water without a second thought, not looking at everyone and instead bathing by himself perfectly normal. After a few minutes, Gilbert came sailing into the room with a shine in his eyes and streaking as usual. I drifted off to the side closest to him and saw him in all his pride.

"…I'm very disappointed."

"Maaan, I was so hyped up da ze!"

"HEY! YOU'RE LOOKING AT FIVE METERS OF AWESOMENESS!"

"…Centi or mili?"

/=+=/

Ah, yet another day that had been documented~!
